Did you know that 25% of all reportable electrical accidents involve portable appliances? There is a legal responsibility on employers to comply with The Electricity at Work Regulations, which requires that any electrical equipment that has the potential to cause injury is regularly maintained and inspected, where:

  • Appliances are used by employees, such as computers, kettles etc.
  • The public may use appliances in establishments, such as hospitals, schools, hotels, shops etc.
  • Appliances are supplied or hired
  • Appliances are repaired or serviced

Our PAT tester will check all portable electrical devices to ensure the appliances are safe and certified accordingly as required by this law.
